1 GENERAL AGREEMENT ON TARIFFS AND TRADE RESTRICTED COM.TD/W/140/Add.2 8 November 1971 Limited Distribution Group on Residual Restrictions Original: English INFORMATION ON ADDITIONAL PRODUCTS SUGGESTED FOR EXAMINATION Addendum In connexion with document COM.TD/W/140, the delegation of the United Kingdom has provided the following comments. Of the thirty-one commodities scheduled for discussion by the Group on Residual Restrictions at its next meeting, the United Kingdom applies quantitative restrictions only on the import of whole hams (other than in air-tight containers), hops and lupulin, and certain jute products. A. Whole hams (other than in air-tight containers) ex BN 02.06A) ex BN 16.02B) H.M. Customs have legal and practical difficulties in distinguishing whole hams from certain cuts of bacon. In order to prevent the undermining of the United Kingdom 10 per cent import tariff on bacon from most-favoured--nation sources under BN heading 02.06(A)(4)(a) (by, for example, the cured gammon cuts of bacon being declared as whole hams not in air-tight containers and thus entering duty free since a nil tariff on this item is bound in GATT). a system of specific licensing from most-- favoured-nation sources is maintained. In practice licenses are not generally granted. BN heading: Area from which restricted: ex BN 02.06A) ex BN 16.02B) Whole hams, other than in air--tight containers All most-favoured-nation sources Type of restriction applied: Specific licensing since licenses are (amounting to a prohibition not generally granted)

2 COM. TD/W/140/Add.2 Page 2 on whole hams are limited. Values are not calculated for domestic production; no information is available on United Kingdom consumption; and imports of whole hams were not separately available until United Kingdom production (tons) 2. United Kingdom imports 24,900 26,900 29,600 31,300 Because 1970 was the first year for which import statistics of whole hams were separately available, only provisional total figures were available at the time of preparation of this material: B. Hops Value. 114 thousand Volume 246 tons Hops are grown solely for use in beer manufacture. In the United Kingdom there are about 530 registered hop growers with an average holding of about thirty acres (excluding brewer growers). Relatively few of these enterprises engage exclusively in hop growing; many combine it with fruit growing or other horticultural and agricultural activities. It is an activity characterized by high capital investment in specialized equipment for growing, harvesting and initial processing, requiring some assurance of a reasonable level of return; and one in which a surplus production over brewers' demands represents almost certainly a complete loss since there is no other use for hops, and no export market for United Kingdom hops. Because of these factors, hop growing in the United Kingdom has been subject since 1932 to a system of market regulation operated by the Hops Marketing Board and designed to link production to forecasts of brewers' demand by establishing an annual quota of production which is marketed through the Board. The Board also fixes the price to be paid to growers in respect of the annual quota on the basis of cost of production plus allowances. The success of such a system of domestic market regulation clearly depends partly on the control of imports as covered by Article XI(2)(c)(i) of GATT. An annual import quota is therefore fixed to allow for demand for varieties of hops not grown in the United Kingdom, and for any shortfall in the United Kingdom crop. BN heading: ex hop cones and lupulin Area from which restricted: All, except Commonwealth and the Irish Republic Type of restrictions Global quota from all sources other than applied: Commonwealth and Irish Republic

United Kingdom consumption1 Q Q Q Q Hops 11,268 10,173 10,739 l0,447 Preparations made from hops Consumption of hops as the quantities from the home crop sold for direct use in brewing or for processing prior to use in brewing together with imports of hops or hop products used by the United Kingdom brewers. Consumption does not therefore exactly equal production plus imports. C. New jute sacks and bags The United Kingdom jute textile industry has no tariff protection against imports, but, in common with several other countries, maintains import restrictions on the main classes of jute goods produced by her home industry. In the United Kingdom, the main obstacle to liberalization is the concentration of the jute industry in one place, Dundee, where it is still very important as a source of employment despite the contraction which has taken place in recent years. Despite considerable government assistance and encouragement it has not yet been possible to attract new industry to Dundee in sufficient quantity to provide alternative employment for the displaced jute workers.' Unfortunately the contraction in jute has latterly been accompanied by redundancies in other Dundee industries including some whose growth, it was hoped, would balance the decline in jute. This has resulted in a serious increase in Dundee unemployment. Until 1969, imports from India and Pakistan of jute goods now subject to quota.control were, channelled through the Jute Control. When the Jute Control was wound up and quotas were introduced, the quota for new jute sacks and bags made from cloth subject to control was set 25 per cent above the 1967 level of imports and this worked out at 50 tons. United Kingdom import statistics do not separately distinguish quota and non-quota sacks and bags. The overall import figures given below show that the United Kingdom imports a considerable quantity of non-quota sacks. The substantial decrease since 1969 is thought to be due mainly to the greater use of alternative methods of packaging, e.g. paper, synthetic and bulk storage and transport. No production figures are available for sacks and bags and it is not therefore possible to calculate the size of the United Kingdom market for those goods. But the trend away from jute will have affected the domestic producers as well as overseas suppliers and it is estimated that United Kindgom consumption of new jute sacks and bags is now less than when quotas were introduced.

5 The question of taking a COM.TD/W/140/Add.2 Page 5 further step towards liberalization of quota-type jute sacks and bags is considered as part of the periodic reviews of quota levels. Any increase in the sack and bag quota would have a direct effect not only on the sack sewers but also on the United Kingdom producers of jute cloth used for sack manufacture. The next review is due to take place at the end of this year. BN heading Item Type of port control ex New sacks and bags and Quotas applying to all countries woolpacks, wholly or mainly save the Eastern Trade Area and of jute; other than certain the Irish Republic. Imports are heavy bags and woolpacks not restricted as to quantity from defined at footnote 1 below the Irish Republic. There are no arrangements for importing these items from the Eastern Trade Area 1.
